Community Services Block Grant Needs Assessment

The Denver Department of Human Services (DHS) contracted with JVA Consulting (JVA) in 2012 (original) and 2014 (update) to facilitate a community needs assessment in an attempt to provide better, more efficient services and improved collaborations. The purpose of the assessment was to evaluate current, unmet and future needs in relation to nine federal objectives: education, emergency services, employment, health, housing, income management, linkages, nutrition and self-sufficiency. The findings from this assessment will enable the Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Advisory Committee to examine key issues and challenges facing Denver and make informed decisions in the development and improvement of services aligned with the needs and priorities of the community.
